Compression damping of fork (XC-W, EXC, EXC-E)
Hydraulic compression damping determines the reaction when the fork is com-
pressed. The degree of compression can be adjusted with adjusting
screws at the bottom of the fork legs.Remove the protecting cap [4].
Turn the screw [5] clockwise to increase damping, turn it counterclockwise
to reduce damping during compression.
STANDARD ADJUSTMENT:
turn adjusting screw clockwise as far as it will go
turn it back by as many clicks as are specified for the relevant type of fork
Typ WP Suspension 14187D02 . . . . .22 clicks
Typ WP Suspension 14187D04 . . . . .22 clicks
Typ WP Suspension 14187D33 . . . . .20 clicks
Typ WP Suspension 14187D34 . . . . .24 clicks
Rebound damping of fork (XC-W, EXC, EXC-E)
Hydraulic rebound damping determines the reaction when the fork is
rebound.
By turning the adjusting screw [6], the degree of damping of the rebound can
be adjusted. Turn the knob clockwise to increase damping, turn it counter-
clockwise to reduce damping during rebounding.
STANDARD ADJUSTMENT:
turn adjusting screw clockwise as far as it will go
turn it back by as many clicks as are specified for the relevant type of fork
Typ WP Suspension 14187D02 . . . . .22 clicks
Typ WP Suspension 14187D04 . . . . .20 clicks
Typ WP Suspension 14187D33 . . . . .22 clicks
Typ WP Suspension 14187D34 . . . . .22 clicks
Spring preload of the fork (XC-W, EXC, EXC-E)
The fork's preload can be adjusted by means of the adjusting screws [7]. Use
a 24 mm fork wrench. More information is provided in the chapter "Adjusting
the fork and shock absorber.“

Compression damping of fork (XC)
Hydraulic compression damping determines the reaction when the fork is com-
pressed. The degree of compression can be adjusted with adjusting
screws at the top of the fork legs.
Turn the screw [1] clockwise to increase damping, turn it counterclockwise
to reduce damping during compression.
STANDARD ADJUSTMENT:
turn adjusting screw clockwise as far as it will go
turn it back by as many clicks as are specified for the relevant type of fork
Typ WP Suspension 14187D27 . . . . .20 clicks
Typ WP Suspension 14187D28 . . . . .20 clicks
Rebound damping of fork (XC)
Hydraulic rebound damping determines the reaction when the fork is
rebound. Remove the protecting cap [2].
By turning the adjusting screw [3], the degree of damping of the rebound can
be adjusted. Turn the knob clockwise to increase damping, turn it counter-
clockwise to reduce damping during rebounding.
STANDARD ADJUSTMENT:
turn adjusting screw clockwise as far as it will go
turn it back by as many clicks as are specified for the relevant type of fork
